How Do Rocks Walk
How Do Rocks Walk?"
How does pain drain?
Is it all contained within a limited brain?
And yes yes if air could breath
It shall never deceive
Upon the path of incredible dreams
It seems it seems that those of us who never dream
how could the clouds weep and rain?
I asked a flower full of red and yellow
And it stayed in place while I gazed, amazed:
One of its petals turned to the east beyond the meadow,
across the fields toward a river that spoke and babbled
And there within my sight, I saw a figural whose shape
was as a heart of mind.
A torrential eddy swallowed the soul of mine.
